I asked Holmgren if Pronger has incurred a setback? "I guess a bit. Most likely will not get games in prior to playoffs."

"I guess a bit"

That probably means his hand fell off.

MsWoof · 03-31-2011, 08:47 PM

I remember Homer saying he was surprised Pronger was out on the ice taking shots a few days ago. It sounds like he rushed it.

RJ8812 · 03-31-2011, 08:47 PM

he's done for the year

Carter's such an *******.

Chris Pronger’s return to the Flyers lineup has now been pushed back to the playoffs.

General manager Paul Holmgren admitted Thursday night that the Flyers’ top defenseman has suffered a setback in his rehab on his surgically-repaired right hand and will not be available to get a game or two in next week when the regular season ends.

Pronger was all smiles earlier this week, taking practice and trying to get back into the Flyers’ lineup at season’s end before the playoffs.

Holmgren denied rumors that Pronger had some sort of new medical procedure on his hand when the Flyers were in Pittsburgh earlier this week. Sources close to Pronger say they are not aware of such, either.

“No, he did not,” Holmgren told CSNPhilly.com.

Probably. I remember hearing he was very sore after taking shots.

Yeah, of course this is "minor" to Holmgren.

4th place here we come.

They're better on the road than at home so as much as I'd prefer to have them finish first, I don't think it really matters

2nd, maybe. We're not dropping behind Pittsburgh when we only need 4 points for/against to win the division.

It will be hard for the Flyers to avoid finishing above the Pens - but they will try...

"I see, I see. Very well, let me know if there is a change in his condition."

[Hangs up phone.]

"He's dead."

KimiFerrari · 04-01-2011, 06:01 PM

Please bring back Gus, Boyton has looked horrible.

This is not looking good.

MiamiScreamingEagles · 04-05-2011, 02:39 PM

An update: Pronger is expected to return to the ice this week (source: Chuck Gormley, quoting Holmgren).

Anything new on your other injured players?

We expect Chris (Pronger) to be back on the ice sometime this week. Danny (Briere) and Blair (Betts) will stay off the ice until Thursday.

Beef Invictus · 04-05-2011, 02:40 PM

Hopefully he doesn't break himself again.
